BUBBLE GUM

Sourcing her inspiration in the painting of the old masters of the 14th to 17th centuries, such as Da Vinci, Raphael, Rembrandt, or Vermeer, Romina Ressia composes her photographs like a painter constructs a painting. Through the precise study of compositions and settings, she appropriates the representational codes of yesteryear. She nonetheless distinguishes her work through a highly contemporary and personal approach, by integrating staged elements from everyday life into her photographs that conspicuously disrupt our reading of them. Considering photography as a unique means of expression, the artist raises questions of a social and behavioural nature by combining the past and the present in a surprising and creative way.
BUBBLE GUM is inspired by the fact that despite technological and human progress, a certain nostalgia manifests itself towards the period where products were more natural and produced using traditional craft techniques. The artist raises the following question here: "how would someone from the Renaissance period behave in today's society?"
